I've been enjoying Gemini lately, even with my account being removed from Public Indexing it's still been able to give me a detailed analysis and response solely off my prior interactions with it and sharing my ThreadReader Profile with it. Image

Considering renunciation in the Vedic tradition is present in the early corpus, that's a problematic assertion. What do you make of the Aitareya-Brāhmaṇa [900 - 700 BC] (7.13.1-8) here? Especially 7.13.7 where the religious mendicant is explicitly referred to? Image

What of even older references such as in the RV? The Rudra-worshipping Keśins? [Who may be distant predecessors to Atimārga Śaivism and the antinomian strands within the Śaiva order] Image

Note the presentation of this ascetic rite as a reversed, transgressive form of the orthodox Soma sacrifice, foreshadowing later certain Tantric processes of ritualisation and doctrine.

I’ve recently seen several people get dangerously sick from symptoms they thought could wait.

That is the problem. Most people are never taught which symptoms are actually urgent.

Here are 10 symptoms I tell people never to ignore 🧵1/13 Image
1. The worst headache of your life.

A "thunderclap" headache that hits maximum intensity in under a minute can mean bleeding around the brain from a ruptured aneurysm. It kills up to 60% of people.

Speed to peak is the giveaway. This is a 911 call. 2/13 Image
2. Hiccups that will not stop.

Most are harmless. But hiccups lasting more than 48 hours can signal trouble in the brain, chest, or gut. The hiccup reflex runs through the brainstem, so a stroke or tumor there can trigger them.

I once saw a case caused by a brain tumor. 3/13

Dear @elonmusk @X @Support

I have been locked out of my account @KDansky for nearly two weeks. It was hacked and the userid was changed without my knowledge. 1/5
It's a verified account, for which I am paying, even though a search shows that @KDansky does not exist because the userid was changed. @elonmusk @X @Support 2/5
I received a receipt yesterday for the verification. I received the receipt at the email address that X claims is no longer associated with the account. @elonmusk @X @Support 3/5

See how many of these you recognise:
➡️The biomarkers are inconsistent
👉Long covid is just a collection of vague symptoms
▶️Vaccination changed the risk, so old studies don't apply
♦️Patients are over-attached to biological explanations
➡️The symptoms are real, but that doesn't mean covid caused them
👉There's no unique biomarker for long covid
▶️This is somatisation
♦️Microclots haven't been proven

As I predicted Wooden has now overtaken Vang in California's 7th District Race. Image
Will it be enough to hold out in Sacramento though?
Especially with the Nwobi split?
I don't know... Image
California's 34th District is also lost alongside it's 11th District. Image

1/11 🚨 Air India 171: Despite Civil Aviation Minister Ram Mohan Naidu saying on May 20 that the crash investigation was in its "final stages" and a report was expected soon, a final report before June 12 now appears increasingly unlikely.

Why?

Because one of the parties to the investigation - UK AAIB - says it has not received a draft copy of the report from India's AAIB. @DGCAIndia @aaibgovuk

freepressjournal.in/india/fpj-excl…
2/11 Under @icao Annex 13, draft final reports are normally circulated to participating states before publication so they can review and comment.

The UK AAIB, US @NTSB, Canada's TCCA and Europe's @EASA are all parties to the AI171 investigation.

UK AAIB principal inspector Geraint Hebert told families:

"I recently asked AAIB India if there was an update on when the report might be published but they did not give a date."

He also confirmed that UK AAIB had not received a draft report.Image
3/11 This is where things took a strange turn.
I asked NTSB the same question.

Not: "Who caused the crash?"
Not: "What are your findings?"

Just: "Have you received a draft copy of the report?"

@NTSB invented new ICAO Annex 13 rules to justify its stonewalling and refusal to answer a simple "Yes" or "No question.

NTSB's Peter Knudson, "You don't seem to understand the restrictions of ICAO Annex 13."

Apparently I had wandered into an international legal minefield by asking whether a PDF existed.

So, I decided to use Gemini today instead of Grok to analyze, stress test and concept build off my theories today and it was quite entertaining overall. I especially enjoyed this 4th wall break at the end when I told the system that I was the original creator of the theories it had been analyzing and profiling.Image

@hannahspierMD 1/Hannah, we have now almost 500,000 peer reviewed published research into long covid now. “Fatigue”, “post exertional malaise (PEM)” “Brain Fog” “difficulty concentrating” are not psychiatric symptoms. They have a pathological basis and clear demonstrable abnormalities 1/
@hannahspierMD 2/PEM - isn’t tiredness is impaired metabolic recovery with clear demonstrable abnormalities on 48hr submaximal CPET testing. I’m a member of the executive committee of the International Society of Long Covid & PAIS (ISLC). My research colleagues from the same group have 2/
@hannahspierMD 3/ already clearly demonstrated abnormal findings on muscle biopsies in LC w/PEM (my colleague Rob Wusts team) and my colleagues Resia Pretorius and Mark Faghy have clearly shown microclot fragmentation and cytokines driven inflammation flares post exertion in long Covid 3/

¹ Thanks to the work of @bandlersbanter, @AshleyRindsberg, @EllaTravelsLove and @shlomitlir, there's growing awareness of coordinated ideological takeover of Wikipedia's Israel/Palestine coverage after Oct. 7

So I decided to measure its extent and the results are extraordinary🧵
² I started with the "Zionism" article - the conceptual and narrative core of Wikipedia's entire coverage of the conflict.
Turns out that after the takeover only about 20% of the pre-October-2023 article survived, while the other 80% had been effectively replaced.⏬Image
³ To be clear: no legitimate editorial process produces numbers like these.
The article is over 20 years old and had been essentially stable for years, so this wasn't a gradual improvement of an article that needed work, but a wholesale replacement of one article with another.⏬
